[[Ryan | [[Ryan Sinclair]] is making a [[Hey|YouTube video]] about the "greatest woman he ever met" and recounts a recent event. He recalls trying to ride a [[bicycle]] with his grandmother [[Grace O'Brien|Grace]] and her husband [[Graham O'Brien]], on a hillside in [[Sheffield]]. Ryan struggles because of his [[dyspraxia]], and falls off the bike. Frustrated, he throws the bike into a forest. Grace and Graham comfort him, though they insist Ryan should collect the bike to try again another time while they head off to the train station. As Ryan ventures to retrieve it, he sees glowing golden lines suspended in the air. He taps one and a [[Tzim-Sha's pod|purple coloured, plant-like pod]] emerges. Ryan calls the police. | ||
[[Yasmin Khan]], a probation police officer, settles a petty dispute between [[Sonia (The Woman Who Fell to Earth)|two]] [[Janey (The Woman Who Fell to Earth)|women]], before calling [[Ramesh Sunder|a superior]]. She asks for more demanding opportunities, and after much pestering, her superior gives her Ryan's case. As she arrives, she and Ryan quickly realise that they knew each other at primary school. Yasmin presumes Ryan's just pulling a prank but Ryan remarks he can't even touch the entity , as it is freezing. Yasmin touches it, finding it burns her hand. Bewildered, she continues questioning Ryan. | [[Yasmin Khan]], a probation police officer, settles a petty dispute between [[Sonia (The Woman Who Fell to Earth)|two]] [[Janey (The Woman Who Fell to Earth)|women]], before calling [[Ramesh Sunder|a superior]].

Meanwhile, Grace and Graham are riding on a train with a man named [ | Meanwhile, Grace and Graham are riding on a train with a man named [[Karl Wright|Karl]] when there is a disturbance which causes the train to come to a screeching halt when the driver, Sissy Roberts, sees something fly at the cabin windows. Grace checks through the window, finding the passengers have fled the train. However, she finds the doors locked, meaning that they are unable to do the same. They call for Ryan and Yasmin, before being encroached by [[Gathering coil|an erratic, electrified tentacle creature]]. Grace calls Ryan, who rushes to the scene with Yasmin. Graham orders Grace and Karl to the back of the carriage but finds it locked. Before the creature can reach them, they are temporarily saved as the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] comes crashing down through the ceiling and electrocutes the creature with a metal pipe. She turns to them, insisting she can help. However, she finds her pockets empty, meaning she cannot use her [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|sonic screwdriver]] to open the door. The creature awakens and pins down Karl, who panics. The Doctor insists that he remain calm as it has not killed them yet, so will not kill them now. Yasmin and Ryan enter the train, standing in shock at the sight of the creature. The creature scans Karl then sends a surge of electricity through the passengers before fleeing. | ||
The Doctor begins to take charge of the situation only for Yasmin to ask who she is. The Doctor asks why Yasmin is calling her "[[madam]]". Perplexed, Yasmin says it's because she is a woman. The Doctor then remembers that she was a [[Twelfth Doctor|white haired Scotsman]] [[Twice Upon a Time (TV story)|half an hour ago]]. She starts explaining as such but returns to her investigating. She enters the driver's cart only to learn that the train's driver is dead. Yasmin initially thinks the woman was murdered, but the Doctor corrects that she actually died from shock. Returning to the others, Yaz insists the Doctor should stop, claiming she will call for backup but the Doctor convinces her to hold off on such until they figure out exactly what the alien was. | The Doctor begins to take charge of the situation only for Yasmin to ask who she is.
